A novel heterocyclic compound, M, contains nitrogen and sulfur atoms and exhibits interesting photochemical properties. When exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light at a specific wavelength, M undergoes a photoreaction resulting in two products: N and O. Product N is formed through a [2+2] cycloaddition involving the nitrogen atom in M, while product O results from a homolytic cleavage of a sulfur-sulfur bond in M. Given these reaction pathways, what is the most probable structure of M, and what are the likely structures of N and O? A. M is a thiazole derivative; N is a dimerized product through the nitrogen atoms, and O is a compound with two sulfur-centered radicals. B. M is a diazine derivative; N is a tetra-atomic cyclic compound, and O is a compound with two separate thiol groups. C.

A chemist allows some pure (2S,3R)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane to react with a solution of sodium ethoxide(NaOCH2 CH3) in ethanol. The products are two alkenes: A (cis-trans mixture) and B, a single pure isomer. Under the same conditions, the reaction of (2S,3S)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane gives two alkenes, A (cis-trans mixture) and C. Upon catalytic hydrogenation, all three of these alkenes (A, B, and C) give 2,3-diphenylpentane. Determine the structures of A, B, and C; give equations for their formation; and explain the stereospecificity of these reactions.
